“He called for the capture of Ukraine: Russian actor Mashkov was sentenced to 10 years in prison in absentia. An elite apartment in Odessa was confiscated from the propagandist.”, — write on: unn.ua
Details
Since the actor is hiding in the Russian Federation, the trial took place in a special court proceeding in absentia (in the absence of the accused).
As the SBU pointed out, Mashkov is a member of the pool of Kremlin propagandists and often speaks at mass rallies in support of a full-scale war against Ukraine.
In December 2023, he was appointed co-head of Putin’s “electoral headquarters” in the so-called presidential elections of the Russian Federation. Then Mashkov traveled around Russia and the temporarily occupied regions of Ukraine, where, as reported, he promoted racism and glorified the occupation groups of the aggressor country.
In particular, during pro-Kremlin “concert-meetings”, he called for the continuation of missile and bomb attacks on the civilian infrastructure of Ukraine.
The court found Mashkov guilty under two articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine:
- Part 2 of Art. 210 (encroachment on the territorial integrity and inviolability of Ukraine);
- Art. 436 (war propaganda).
Comprehensive measures are currently underway to bring the convict to justice, the SBU said.
